Brandon, her husband, said he was inspired to make it after seeing a similar sign on social media. In order to execute the plan, he didn’t tell his son about it in advance. He just gave him the sign to hold.

“I figured he'd try to make a big deal about it,” said her husband Brandon.

Speaking of big deal, this good-humored joke has turned into one on Facebook.

A post with Daimen smiling and holding the sign has been shared nearly 130,000 times and has been liked close to 75,000 times.

“We've had people from all over contacting us and telling us how funny it is,” said Barbara.

However, aside from the social media hype, the Nielsens say the sign acts as a powerful reminder to all of us to lighten-up.

"People have fun. Stop being so serious,” said Barbara. “Get some humor in your life," explained Brandon.

Brandon did mention that Barbara would be going on another work trip soon, so he was brainstorming what he’d do this time around.
